About this file
This is a certification attachment for a Request for Proposal solicitation (BPM006852) issued by the Arizona Department of Administration State Procurement Office for lobbying services to the Secretary of State. The solicitation seeks an "Authorized Public Lobbyist" as defined under A.R.S. 41-1231(2) to provide professional intergovernmental state legislative advocacy services beginning with the 2026 Arizona State Legislative Session. Proposals were due by July 16, 2025, with the selected lobbyist responsible for representing the agency's interests and engaging with state legislators during the legislative session. Technical inquiries submitted less than five business days before the proposal due date would not receive responses from the state.
The certification document requires contractors to comply with Arizona Revised Statutes Section 35-394 regarding the forced labor of ethnic Uyghurs in the People's Republic of China. Contractors must either certify that they do not use and will not use forced labor of ethnic Uyghurs, goods or services produced by such forced labor, or contractors and suppliers utilizing such labor, or select an exemption if they are a sole proprietorship, have fewer than ten employees, or are a non-profit organization. Molera Alvarez, a lobbying firm located at 5343 N 16th Street, Suite 240, Phoenix, Arizona 85016, submitted this certification as part of their proposal response, with Jaime A. Molera, Partner, authorized to sign the documentation.
